This book is not only a history but an encyclopedia of knowledge. Not only is this book for the prospective newf buyer but also for the owner/breeder who wants as much knowledge as they can learn about their breed. Great, great resource!!
The information provided ranges from puppyhood to adulthood September 18, 2004

The Newfoundland dog breed is hallmarked not only by their large size, but with a gentle, sweet, fun disposition. The Newfoundland is a wonderful family pet and are willing workers and playful companions. In The Newfoundland: Gentle Giant, author JoAnn Riley draws upon her many years of experience and expertise with the breed to provide a superbly organized and presented guidebook to the selection, history, and descriptive standards of the Newfoundland. The information provided ranges from puppyhood to adulthood. Of special interest are the chapters devoted to grooming and enjoyable activities that Newfoundlands can engage in with their human companions. Other chapters are dedicated to the Newfoundland Club of America; breeding and whelping, and dealing with the inevitable loss of older Newfoundland "family members" when their time finally comes to a conclusion. The Newfoundland: Gentle Giant is confidently recommended to anyone contemplating having or who already enjoys the company of a Newfoundland.
